MSNBC: Trump’s ambassador to Israel plays a risky political game

Former Rep. Ron Klein (D-Fla.), chairman of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, said in a statement, “It is truly unprecedented for a sitting U.S. Ambassador to Israel to engage in explicitly partisan rhetoric and behavior…. Ambassador Friedman must remember that he is not the head of the Republican National Committee or the Republican Jewish Coalition political organization. He is the U.S. Ambassador, as confirmed by the U.S. Senate, to represent all Americans in Israel – not just those of one party, or those who share his political views.”
